So I just did a Google search for the main Exact Match keyword that I had created a Squidoo lens around. After it being #1 on Page 1 of google for this keyword for several months, it now finally dropped to #27. This Exact Match keyword has 8,100 local searches and 12,100 global searches.

I managed to get this article there simply by writing a long in depth article, and plugging the keyword in various places, making sure I did the best job I could with onpage SEO. The subject line, pics, etc.

The other thing I had done was ping the article periodically, especially when I tweaked and updated the lens.

The other thing I did was an occasional tweet and FB post about it, along with a Fiverr gig I had bought to distribute the page and description out there to several bookmarking pages including some of the bigger ones.

After about a month or two of time, and just the one Fiverr gig and few tweets and FB posts I had done, my page climbed up, and eventually got to 1st page. I did one more Fiverr gig and afterward, it shot up to #1 page 1 of Google!

It remained there for at least 4 months, and all I would do was continue to update it a bit periodically, and blast a tweet occasionally as well. I did one more Fiverr gig post as well, again posting it to bookmarking sites with a different subject, description, etc., but same URL.

Today, I found out that after the 4 months or 5 months or so that it's been #1 page 1, it's finally dipped to page 3 #27 now.

Are there any suggestions that you recommend to get this lens back up to page 1 #1 or at least page 1 #5 perhaps?

I'm not sure what other options I can do aside from updating the lens a bit, tweeting, FB'ing, and so forth. I'd really like to get this lens back to the top... granted, it wasn't blowing up in money but it brought me several Clickbank sales as a result of being #1.

Any info is greatly appreciated.

    Hi Genycis!
    My advice is to stay away from Fiverr. hhhh
    But you can build some backlinks.

    1. setup an google alert for your Keyword and comment on blogs
    2. Profile backlink from twitter and facebook
    3. you can make and upload a video to youtube with a link to your article
    And you will see the results!
